Thanks for the input, guys.

The problem is indeed exactly what I thought, the rod is too thick as it is a regular off-the-shelf Shur-Lift cylinder from Princess Auto. I'm probably going to just have to learn to live with it, at least until I come across exactly what I am looking for. The tractor works on our property most of the time, and 90% of the remainder it get floated to where it needs to go. It's really only that weird feeling while driving at road speeds.

My brother has a JD455, I'll have to check his out. Mind you, his is Quadrasteer so that may make a difference too (sure does to lawn mowing!). Actually that tractor is neat too, as it has a home designed and built front end loader on it! (not available for four-wheel-steer JD455's). It was entirely built from scratch from scrap steel, with the exception of the cylinders and hoses, pins and bearings.

If anyone has any further input be sure to yell it out! I'll probably be posting a bunch of pictures on the International B-Series Group on Yahoo...
